Yann Ehrlacher went from testing his Lynk & Co 03 TCR in Barcelona to finishing in the top three in the electric section of the Trophée Andros in Paris.

Following what he described as a “great day” of running at Circuit de Barcelona-Catalunya on Friday, Ehrlacher headed to his capital city for the Trophée Andros ice-racing finale, which used a temporary circuit within the Stade de France.

After finishing third in the Endedis Trophée Andros Electrique, Ehrlacher wrote on Facebook: “Gonna keep this one in mind for long. Podium for my first Stade de France. Amazing feeling to drive in such an atmosphere, in front of so many people.”

Ehrlacher’s test in Spain was part of his preparations for the upcoming WTCR – FIA World Touring Car Cup season when he will drive a Geely Group Motorsport-developed Lynk & Co 03 TCR run by Cyan Racing.
